What color does tea turn in neutral?

When tea is brewed in a neutral pH environment, it typically maintains its original color, which can range from light golden to deep amber, depending on the type of tea. However, if the pH shifts significantly towards acidic or basic, the color may change. For instance, adding lemon (acidic) can make black tea appear more reddish, while adding baking soda (basic) may turn it a brighter, more vibrant yellow.
